CAN I Believe

Do I believe? can I believe? I feel the anxiety. It creeps up on me like a tiger in the night Slowly going for her prey. And with one swift jump, she encompasses All there is to satisfy her whim, her hunger. I am hungry too! I have been hungry For such a long time! My heart is swollen but with one soft Pressure from your lips on mine, I release, I cry. The tears come Falling down around me. I am drowned with the mere Essence of you! In all the time, and all the wait Is it my time? The answer is only yes, yes, yes.

A beautiful poem expressing yearning for one's true love and the emotive wait. I love your last two lines, a question we ask of ourselves hoping the answer is yes. Lovely piece, Willette.
